1. I will review Development of Assessment Tools in Assessment of Learning 1, 2007 by Santos Rosita, pp.36-53 and Assessment of Learning 2, pp.14-22 and refer to other references on Assessment of Learning.

2. Interview my Resource Teachers on steps they take to ensure content validity of their test.

3. Secure copies of a written quiz/test and a lesson plan from my Resource Teacher upon which the quiz/test is based and a copy of a Table of Specifications.

4. Answer given questions for analysis.

5. Reflect on my observations.

My Tools

A. Interview 1. I will ask my Resource Teacher this question: hool to ensure the content validity of your periodic tests?

What do you do what does your sc

Summary of Information Gathered from the Interview:

Ito ay isinasagawa at nakikita kpag nasuri at naiwasto na ang pagsusulit at napatunayan na marami na ang nakapasa * - Ma am Rhea

B. Documentary Analysis (Lesson Plan with accompanying quiz/test) My documentary analysis will be guided by this question: Does the quiz/test measure what it is supported to measure?

Yes, because it corresponds on what is the objective of the lesson (Dalaginding ) and it also suits to know if the students really understand the message of the topic th at is related with the experiences that they encounter in their present lives. *

1. What as a Table of Specification (TOS) to do with the content validity of tes t?

* Constructing fair tests that give teachers accurate information about students l earning is an important skill for teachers. The table of specification is often useful to orga nize the planning process of designing a test allows the teacher to predetermine the content of th e test. Using TOS to organize a teacher made test helps alleviate content validity problems because i t helps the teachers create good balance in several areas.

2. I f validity as a characteristics of test means that a test must measure what it is supposed to measure, is a multiple choice type of test valid to determine learning of manipu lative skill like focusing a microscope? Explain. * Yes, the teacher can establish that the learner is already competent of doing th e hands on of microscope through assessing her/his cognitive result with the use of assessment tool like multiple choice test question. 3. Do we have other types of validity of a test other than content validity? Res earch for an answer. * Construct validity Construct validity occurs when the theoretical constructs of cause and effect ac curately represent the real-world situations they are intended to model. This is related to how well the experimen t is operational zed. A good experiment turns the theory (constructs) into actual things you can measure. Sometimes just finding out more about the construct (which itself must be valid) can be helpful. Construct validity is thus an assessment of the quality of an instrument or expe rimental design. It says 'Does it measure the construct it is supposed to measure'. If you do not have construct validity, you will likely draw incorrect conclusions from the experiment (garbage in, garbage out). Convergent validity

Convergent validity occurs where measures of constructs that are expected to cor relate do so. This is similar to concurrent validity (which looks for correlation with other tests). Discriminant validity Discriminant validity occurs where constructs that are expected not to relate do not, such that it is possible to discriminate between these constructs. Convergence and discrimination are often demonstrated by correlation of the meas ures used within constructs. Convergent validity and Discriminant validity together demonstrate construct val idity. Nomological network Defined by Cronbach and Meehl, this is the set of relationships between construc ts and between consequent measures. The relationships between constructs should be reflected in the relationships be tween measures or observations. Multitrait-Multimethod Matrix (MTMM)

Defined by Campbell and Fiske, this demonstrates construct validity by using mul tiple methods (eg. survey, observation, test) to measure the same set of 'traits' and showing correlations in a matrix, where blocks and diagonals have special meaning. Internal validity Internal validity occurs when it can be concluded that there is a causal relatio nship between the variables being studied. A danger is that changes might be caused by other factors. It is related to the design of the experiment, such as in the use of random assi gnment of treatments. Conclusion validity Conclusion validity occurs when you can conclude that there is a relationship of some kind between the two variables being examined. This may be positive or negative correlation. External validity External validity occurs when the causal relationship discovered can be generali zed to other people, times and contexts. Correct sampling will allow generalization and hence give external validity. Criterion-related validity This examines the ability of the measure to predict a variable that is designate d as a criterion. A criterion may well be an externally-defined 'gold standard'. Achieving this level of validity thus makes results more credible. Criterion-related validity is related to external validity. Predictive validity This measures the extent to which a future level of a variable can be predicted from a current measurement. This includes correlation with measurements made with different instruments. For example, a political poll intends to measure future voting intent. College entry tests should have a high predictive validity with regard to final exam results. Concurrent validity These measures the relationship between measures made with existing tests. The e xisting tests is thus the criterion. For example a measure of creativity should correlate with existing measures of c reativity. Face validity

Face validity occurs where something appears to be valid. This of course depends very much on the judgment of the observer. In any case, it is never sufficient and requires more solid validity t o enable acceptable conclusions to be drawn. Measures often start out with face validity as the researcher selects those whic h seem likely prove the point

SO00768_.WMF HH00693_.WMF My Reflection

* Write down what you learned on what to do ensure validity of tests. Did you ever experience taking a test which was very difficult because the items were not all covered in class? How did it affect you? How will you prevent your future pupils / students from experiencing the same?

. I learned that validity of a test is very important for student s side because t his will be their record if they really understand and if they learn something about that lesson. . Yes, I encounter taking a test which was very difficult because the items were not all covered in class, in that case I got a low grade that really affect my studies most especia lly my excelling grade that contributes in academic field. . As a future teacher, I will 100 % ensure validity of my test not because it is my job and duty but because I want my students to learn a lot from me. To remain my identity as a te acher who teaches simplification and incorporates valid transfer of learning s. . My Portfolio

1. Research on at least two forms of TOS. Paste them here. Between the two, whic h do you prefer?

2. Copy one lesson objective from my Resource Teacher (or use same lesson object ive that I used in the My Tools portion, letter B Documentary Analysis of this Episode). I will develop an appropriate and valid quiz/test to measure attainment of that lesson objectiv e.

Lesson Objective: Hinahangad na ang mga mag-aaaral bilang kabataan ay matutunang pahalagahan ang sarili hinggil sa pagkilala at edukasyon nang ang kaisipang ito a makatulong sa kanilag kinabukasan at kapa-kapakinabang na buhay baling araw Test/Quiz - Pagsasalaysay ng kuwento ng Batang Pag-Ibig gamit ang Pang (Komposisyon/Sulating Impormal at Pormal. uri.

3. Following the new version of Bloom s Taxonomy of Objectives, formulate a lesson objective for each level and a corresponding valid test item. (Don t worry if in writing the sample question, you go beyond the triangle.) Nakagagawa ng isang simbolo na maibabatay tema ng aralin na pinamagatang Dalaginding . ANALYSIS
